Novel object recognition with D-galactose

From 2021 to 2025, 44 animal research papers mentioned D-galactose and novel object recognition in their title or abstract.

There were 1 such papers in 2011 to 2015. We compare the two periods only when each has 10 or more papers.

44 animal research papers from 2021 to 2025 mentioned D-galactose and novel object recognition
18% of the 244 papers from 2021 to 2025 that mention D-galactose and a test mention novel object recognition
1% of the 3,019 papers from 2021 to 2025 that mention novel object recognition also mention D-galactose
1 papers in 2011 to 2015, fewer than the 10 needed to compare

Papers that mention D-galactose and novel object recognition fell from 11 in 2021 to 6 in 2022, then rose to 9 in 2025. Part of this dip may come from PubMed's indexing rather than from fewer studies. We take a paper's species from PubMed's indexing when the indexing names one. Otherwise PubTator 3, NCBI's text-mining service, has to find a species in the title or abstract, or the paper is not counted. Papers that PubMed indexed under the subject heading Animals also fell and rose, from 200,221 in 2021 to 156,447 in 2023 and 235,479 in 2025.

Which species the papers used

Which papers count

A paper counts here when it is animal research and its title or abstract mentions D-galactose and novel object recognition.

A paper that mentions either only in its methods is missed, so the count runs low. The search terms are in the list of models and techniques and the test list. The full method, with each source and its terms of use, is on our main page, Behavioral tests in published research.

More pairings

Every pairing of an animal model and a test with 30 or more papers from 2021 to 2025 has a page like this one.

The page on novel object recognition counts all the papers that mention it, whatever they study. The page on D-galactose ranks the tests mentioned with it.
